Do you have a step by step manual that explains the process or do we just look at the styles on your website, pick a fabric design an get a prototype made?

Yes, we can send you a step-by-step guide. We have a prototype manual and we will be in constant touch to guide you on every step of the way.

Do you manufacture private label beach wear, wraps and cover-ups?

Yes, in addition to bikinis, we produce matching cover-ups, sarongs and pareos.

Is the 120 minimum for custom designed bikinis for sets or separate tops and bottoms?

We count one bikini as a set. That is, the bottom plus top count as one piece

You offer design and prototyping in-house. Can this step be skipped if we already have our designs?

No because we would have to prototype it to make sure we can reproduce them to your standard prior to them entering into production. Keep in mind that we don’t profit or make money off of prototyping.

We have our own swimwear designs. Do you charge extra to produce our own designs in comparison to using one of your own pre-designed styles?

We simply charge a prototype fee of $150 to ensure your swimwear design is exactly how you want it to be prior to us producing it in quantities. It takes into account labor, time and material resources needed to reproduce your swimwear design. It’s non-refundable but you get to keep the bikini. If you think […]

How do we place an order?

An order can be placed using our online order form or by sending us an email listing the styles, quantities, colors and sizes you would like to purchase.

How much can I expect to earn?

You should expect to earn at least 100% of whatever you end paying for. If you spent a total of $1,000 including shipping and other expenses, you should aim to earn at least twice that amount. Of course, you can offer discounts on holidays and earn around 50%. It largely depends on you.

What is the minimum upfront cost?

The upfront cost depends on how many bikinis you purchase. The cost is basically the wholesale price of each bikini plus shipping and any clearing fees you may have to pay on receiving the goods. We’ll send you a proforma invoice so you know exactly what you will be paying for in advance should you […]

Do you offer a wider selection of swimwear to choose from?

Yes. We have many more styles. They consist of models from previous collections and are sold on a first come first served basis until we run out of stock. Likewise, any styles you don’t see and wish we had in stock can be produced. This option falls under our custom design services and largely depends […]

I’m interested in opening a wholesale account with you. Do I need a business license?

I want to create my own brand of bikinis. Please help me get started.

Creating your own brand has never been easier.

What labels do you work with? Can you provide examples of swimwear companies who have used your bikini manufacturing services?

Private label customers prefer to remain anonymous. We respect their privacy and understand why they would not want to reveal the bikini manufacturer who supplies or produces their collection. Having said that, we also understand that knowing a few brands would make you feel more confident about what we do. Suffice to tell you that […]

Can you be trusted?

Trust is earned and not easily conveyed with text online.

The greatest things we’ve learned about trust is that people don’t just buy the product but the […]
